Aw: Re: From text mode to graphics mode

Here some feedback.

I installed elg-utils, but not changes.

Output of inxi -GSaz

You ran inxi -Fzxx, which obfuscates useful information by supplying useless
information (the whole kitchen sink, rather than graphics info only) while at the
same time omitting valuable graphics information. Even though incomplete when run
in text mode, inxi -GSaz would add graphics information you have yet to include in
this thread that might help us help you.

Have you yet installed egl-utils?

Have you done as others suggested, running in text mode, commands to collect and
examine logs for error reports, e.g.

journalctl -b -1 -p3

would give a relatively short report from the immediately previous boot in which
running in GUI mode was attempted. You could redirect its output to a file for
sharing here:

journalctl -b -1 -p3 > somefile.txt

Or upload it and give us the link provided:

journalctl -b -1 -p3 | fpaste

Have you considered trying something other than GDM or Gnome, such as LightDM and
XFCE using X11 instead of Wayland? Doing so successfully could disclose whether
your problem is in Wayland and/or Gnome and/or GDM, rather than the base 44 OS,
and give you a chance to use a GUI to further troubleshoot.
